withdrawal. This information ar
rived here today in confidential mes
sages from official sources in Mexico

LEWIS ASSAILS HUGHES ON
MEXICAN CRITICISM
Washington, Aug. 5. On the
heads of the "generals" of the Re
publican party lies the responsibility
for lives lost in Mexico, Democratic
Whip Lewis charged today in a sen
ate speech.
Lewis announced his speech as an
answer to the Mexican issue raised
by Charles E. Hughes in his accept
ance address.
He declared that irresponsible
Mexican bandits had become encour
aged to commit acts of horror be
cause Republican leaders, in their
anxiety to embarrass the president
and create a campaign issue, had
given the impression that the coun
try was not united In support of its
executive head.
The Mexican issue, he asserted,
had been picked up for purposes of
expediency only after prosperity had
made the favorite Republic doctrine,
the tariff, impracticable.
"The bandits of Villa found their
allies in the leaders of the Republi
can party," said Lewis. "All were for
the destruction of an American pol
icy, an American president.
"By the doctrine of the law which
holds responsible those who set in
motion the machinery which ends in
the murder of a man, the Republican
platform builders who denounced
their president were the perpetrators
of the death of those Americans,"
